Mesh operates differently than traditional router. Traditional routers have more control because they are a designed to be a different approach at the same concept.  Providing adequate wireless for a customer's home.  When using OneMesh, which is Mesh setup on compatible Archer routers, you cannot control the more advanced features such as channel and bandwidth.  Only basic settings: SSID, Password and Encryption are selectable or can modified.  There are a few reasons for this.  1.  Its dues to the bands being used as the backhaul and thus the router chooses the best settings to keep the connection between nodes alive.  2.  Ease of use.  Mesh was designed to be simplistic.  Access and control through a mobile app, control via local and remote connection and to really remove the guess work out network management.  To combat the concerns with this that you have the system does have a network optimization button.

I understand Kris, and to extent I can agree.  What I have provided is the information we have been given to us by the design and engineering team.  However, what I will do is add this to our request spreadsheet that is sent to the product team. They review this on a monthly basis and is used to understand and provide customers with what they want.  I can't say if it will be updated but its a step in the that direction.
